The market starts scaring the shit out of me. What the hell is wrong with the cryptocurrency market? What on earth is going on in the cryptocurrency market? I used to justify the recent market crash as a 'fake dump' but now it starts freaking me out! So, where do you guys think is the next bus stop for bitcoin? I'm thinking isn't this beyond 'hash wars' or Bakkt launch fake dump by the whales?

clam down dude.

World Economic is not good right now.

it all red and bleeding  you need too HODL strong don't panic sale.

How do I vote to your poll?

No big deal and there is talk that the price is going further down. I usually
make a little buy order at the end of most weeks but this week I have held
off to see if there will be a further slide in price so that i can get more
"Bang for my buck"

I never thought of it as a fake dump, we've seen it falling from $20k down to $6k and that's no joke at all.

Don't forget that it's not only crypto that's going down now. Don't be scared, we are sharing the same fate with the usual traders out there. Check out the news about stock market too.

Stock indexes log worst Thanksgiving week since 2011—all three fall at least 3.5% (https://www.marketwatch.com/story/stocks-poised-to-open-lower-in-black-friday-trade-notch-weekly-loss-of-more-than-3-2018-11-23)

@quartzz newbies can't.

it was never about the bcash war or bakkt delaying their launch. this is just the bear market playing out, in bitcoin's typical fashion: emotional, volatile, and unforgiving. 

a lot of investors, old and new, were clinging to the $6000 bottom. now they're losing hope and finally exiting the market. it's a natural part of the cycle. hopefully we'll find support in the $3k area. all i know is, we haven't bottomed yet. when bitcoin bottoms, it snaps back hard and the whole market is left chasing.

bitcoin is going to die. but hey it was fun.

Almost had me chuckling on that one, dude.

Word up.  As we say in the states, if you can't stand the heat, get the F out the kitchen. 

Why it is that people don't see this as a fire-sale opportunity to buy bitcoin is beyond me.  All I hear is bitching, wailing, and gnashing of teeth over the recent drop.  Yes, it's a severe one, but it's not the end of the world.

this is too scary. Bad news will be heard at the end of the bear market. No investor will continue to buy coins and the coins will continue to depreciate. This may be the last chance for Bitcoin to get on the bus, but now the risk is very high, I choose to watch.

if we use another side opinion about current bearish market we should look at this is as best opportunity to invest our some money in bitcoin and altcoin.only more patience till bitcoin reached deepest level and we buy it.

Fall and more fall. So will the rise and further rise will happen but when it is just a question now in the market as December is near and will it be the best month for the entire year for all the investors and traders. Also it is the time to buy at the lowest rate with this further dip happened yesterday.

This is simply just the bear market manifesting on the market right now, and this is not about Bakkt delaying launch or the hash wars on the BCH fork; this is uncharted territory that we're staying at and it could still possibly fall from here. I'd still like to think that $3200 will be the lowest we will ever see on this cycle but then again signs are telling us that it could still go downhill from here. The market doesn't seem to exhibit signs of being oversold and there seems to be a lot of coins to be offloaded still. Even the world markets are experiencing some sort of downfall after the Black Friday, so I guess it's usual for traders to cash out during these times of the year.

Yeah the poll shows it all. And I can only think about one thing -we all heard hundred times already that "wall-street" capital is coming to bitcoin and crypto community, I would now be surprised that this is another manipulations of those whales. Learn it guys- whales buy cheap. Ones they fill their pockets we may expect the rise.

Well,the current market situtation is this:
People,who are freaked out,just like you,are selling all their coins.This leads to more people freakin' out,which leads to more panic.It's a snowball effect.I assume it will stop somewhere around Chritmass,but the prices won't recover in the next 6 months.

The price of Bitcoin in the $ 4000 position will end I think this week, so don't panic, stay focused on investing as much as possible and collect Bitcoin as best you can, I'm sure this year will end the $ 10,000 bitcoin...

If you take the situation from last year, the price of bitcoin was inflated to $ 20,000, and what is happening now is the correction which goes in during this year.
I think the price will fall to 2.5 - 3 thousand, and then there will be growth. So in the current situation it is not necessary to sell and buy while you think is not worth it.


It is unlikely that the price drop will end at 4000, with the current panic in the market. and the fact that we will see growth by the end of the year it is likely to happen but that's how much growth is not unknown.

Only the bitcoin holders will understand their pain of now since the prices keeps falling everyday and no one can say when we will reach the bottom to bring the new investors to invest again so just hold the coins and lets give some effort as much as can to increase the prices again.

I think that there is no panic on the market. Whales run all the processes of trading on the market and artificially lowered the price to try to lure the bitcoins from private investors. Huge money has been invested in the cryptoindustry, and this money will work very much so that means that the market will soon get a bullish trend.

I think there is no need to panic, the rumour said that this happen because of the manipulation and the hash war, so the situation is going to be temporary, I think the price will fall down around $3000 before it is going to go up, but for sure bitcoin is not dying and we dont need to make other people panic

It might be hurting your or anybody's portfolio, but it is an opportunity, isn't it? Bitcoin hasn't been that cheap since September of the last year. If you believe there is a value in Bitcoin, simply buy  ;)

yes, basically, this, I have been buying lately, not madly, just buy more as it goes down, I hold a long term view on this, although something is not right with the market, I guess its a cataclysm of many factors and cannot be finger pointed to one thing, I did buy a bit at the 6k mark, but I never put in what I can afford to lose, it will pay off, might take most of my life but it will get there lol.

This situation is appropriate to make even the senior players panic, the price of sliding down is lower than predicted, there are many outstanding reasons that I think are confusing the atmosphere, I feel less confident to suggest you HOLD for longer, but that is the way one the only thing and not just an option to keep prices from dropping even though it needs to be mentally steeled for that, this situation indeed makes many loyal investors disappointed, hopes that there will be good news at the end of the year it feels very unlikely

American policy and conference in Brussels yesterday, may be one of the causes of fall of Bitcoin. statements that do not support cryptocurrency lead to large quantities of sales

Look at the bigger picture and you will find the answer. The global stock markets have seen a massive dump in IT based stocks and derivatives and this is most likely why Bitcoin and Crypto currency investments are also struggling. Bitcoin is also part of a bigger IT investment portfolio and investors are running away from high risk investments now.

We should actually thank our lucky stars that the ETF was not approved, because if institutional investors were invested in that, then we would have seen even more dumping of Crypto currency investments.  ::)

I just understood about the fire that occurred in crypto,the drop in world stock prices made the crypto follow suit but a part of this decline was not clear that there were shrimp behind the rock.BTC from 6K then fall to 3K now at the moment which is probably the latest reason to take advantage of the purchase later when all panic sell,2020 new bullish that might make people panic swallowed hard.

Newbies cannot vote on bitcointalk, sorry. In case you're wondering about poll results, for now the majority is both for 2k+ and 10k+ prices.
The situation seems less and less safe each day. During this long price drop, I came to thinking that it's okay for btc to be worth around $6-7k, since it will surely never go below $5900. Why? Because it never did in a year until recently. When it went a bit below $5k, I was like 'Wellm that sucks, but it's due to unpredictable bitcoin cash shit that happened out of thin air, btc will get over it soon'. I don't even know how the price is already below $4k... I am losing a lot of money that I was supposed to be earning and saving... It's really hard for me to sit and do nothing, hoping that the price will get better. I am still holding, but I am not sure how long I'll be able to put up with it.

In my opinion. This storm will continue until early 2019. We can predict the condition of crypto will be able to recover or not around January 2019. When in January the market conditions did not improve, the storm will continue. many experts say that this condition occurs because it is approaching Christmas and the turn of the year. so this condition has occurred in the previous year and crypto can rise after the turn of the year each year.

In my opinion the situation should change soon. Since the global crisis is gringing, you need to pour money somewhere. I think the cryptocurrency market is ideal for investing here. Thus, the price will start to grow.

If your main purpose was to save up, how exactly are you losing money? Virtual gains or losses aren't fact until you sell your coins. It's a psychological battle people are facing rather than something that actually hits them.

People save up fiat for years without touching a penny, and suddenly it's a problem that the price experiences a short term dip? Try to distance yourself from fiat and think in BTC. 1BTC is still 1BTC.

Stay strong and hodl through this harsh end phase of the bear market. If you don't need any money in the coming months, don't sell anything. Don't let greedy whales shake you out that easily--build up solidity as hodler.

in my opinion, with the hash war and also the existence of the delayed BAKKT, it will worsen the market situation in 2019, or there is also the possibility that this will only last until black Friday and Christmas are completed, so that in 2019, it can be said that the good for entry markets

Bitcoin will drive us all crazy: while I'm writing, it's back to 4,000, earning 10% in just a few hours.
I do not know, if anyone finds any logic in all this, let me know.
I gave up.

I wonder why all the world community is excited about the decline in Bitcoin Prices, even though if we look at the end of 2016, the price of Bitcoin is not more than $ 900, and starts
and the end of 2017 is the golden age of Bitcoin and other crypto, even though the price keeps falling into the end of 2018
any fluctuating price can occur that makes us pound awaiting bitcoin and cryptocurrency surprises.

that happens because bitcoin has already reached fantastic prices, so investors are investing their funds. and it turns out that prices are declining during 2018, that's what makes them await the surprise of bitcoin

i guess it will not below 3000$ , if like that  i dont know what will happens , and i hope it will get recovery time to btc to rise up again

if im not mistaken last year price before the bull run start is about 3000$ so it is a good indication that the market will return strong soon so patience is must with this kind of market.

I already see this red markings again in the market and that is one scary situation. Im just so shocked that bitcoin is going down and now its only 3.5k. A bad news for everyone. Eventhough some people still have their trust to bitcoin but the feeling of hopelessness will occur sone point. We cant deny the fact that we are worriying about it and we cant do anything about it but to wait. I just hoping that this moment is just because of economic crisis so im stil waiting for a major comeback of bitcoin soon.

Take advantage of this opportunity, we will never see bitcoin at these prices again.  "be greedy when others are fearful"

Scenario development in the near future is not the best I assure you!! The days of decline are not over yet and what is happening with bitcoin and all altcoins is the result of crazy growth in 2017.
To some extent, the reasons that you have indicated indirectly influenced the decline in prices , but the main reason is that there is no good news, and it confuses investors.
There will be good news may turn around and if not the mood will be with each new minimum only deteriorate.

Other cryptocurrencies are starting to make a run on the top 3. This weekend we have seen ETH lose out on its 2nd position by market cap. Bitcoin will hold dominance for a while to come, but I would say in 10 years time this may not be the case.

Only touch bitcoin at under $4,000 and never growing down to lower price, you can keep invest your money at bitcoin right now because have profitable for make investment with bitcoin or crypto.

I believe bitcoins has bottomed out and it won't be crossing the resistance level of 3k, also the effect of Bcash war and Bakkt not launching now seem to fade away. This is a typical bear market phase which has paralysed bitcoins, and instead of moaning start acting and accumulate it. I believe it's only matter of days before a rally comes to bitcoins, as it always has happened after bottoming out.

Agree with your opinion. We just have to wait until the end of this year what it will be.

I do not understand what the experts are analyzing. At the moment we are in such a position that the price cannot be analyzed. It could have been possible to find a way out on Forex but the crypto is a lot different. The price is very active and the sector is new, so every situation we encountered probably did not happen in the past.

For holders out there, looks like you going to hold further more. For others, time to buy or wait a little more there might be another lowest price this year. It seems the bottom hasn't reach yet. I think bigtime investors are continually increasing their coins by buying at a discount.

this is not the first crash where 2013 and the following year they also gave a lot of big surprises to users and investors. bitcoin will have the lowest price at $ 3500 in my opinion and then buy more, because you are on a spaceship ready to skyrocket to generate multiple profits

What is there not to be excited about actually? I know it may not be totally relative to cryptocurrency, but if someone decides to give you something for a lot cheaper price and something you know has a real value both in the short term and in the long run based on its characteristics, potential for growth and usage, won't you take it as an opportunity and simply even want to ask for more?

Those who are aware based on understanding of the potential of this market, will obviously know they have nothing to worry about. This is an opportunity and if anyone is smart, they will surely be taking it for their long term advantage.

The problem is that that everyone was here during the 2013 crash. No one has expected that the price will go down like 70% or more specially the fall in the last couple of days. A lot of investors got scared, but you need to understand where they're coming far.

Of course if your looking at a long term goal, its a good entry point. But then again, I'd say majority of speculators are looking at short term price that's why there's no one buying and the selling pressure is still very high. But there will be a point wherein the bears will be exhausted and we might see the tail end of this long bear cycle.

Bitcoin will never die and also there is nothing fun here.

it could drop another round to 3k. then bull run....

Yes, market is in the fire but I still believe we will reach again 6K's. 6K was the most important support for us. Broken but still will be stronger, I guess.

The bottom of the cryptocurrency market may appear during the Chinese New Year!
When the new round of bitcoin mining revenues halved in 2020, the next round of bull markets may start!

I agree that bitcoin is likely will to fall to 3k$, but after that the market will not start to recover and grow right away, because for this it will be necessary that new investors must start investing in bitcoin and the cryptocurrency market and thus accumulate accumulations and after some time, most likely it will take at least half a year or even more, then after that we can most likely will see how the market will start to grow.

I agree. Looking at the current downtrend, there is no sign of a reversal trend, so the possibility is still heading towards the deepest valley and going up gradually later, but my hope is not for a long time

It seems like bitcoin will come to an end. This because market is constantly dipping and I do not like to see if an investors will going to invest for now because of the current situation where many will be thinking if bitcoin will going to end. As we all know that fiat currency is still the best currency compared to cyrptocurrency so in my case I rather not invest now for there could be a good reason that the equivalency of my fiat currency will go down for more or even lost all of it.

investors who really have a good glimpse from what can possibly happen after this massive downfall are  really accumulating a lots, as they can continue monitoring and analyzing the market behaviors, we know that big players have a much wider point of views regarding to this investment currency, while
they are accumulating it's also good for small players to do the same, buy and wait as momentum will change pace after some time.

Well said! This current drop can scare off some weak hands, but people who know how to make money will definitely take advantage of this situation. For a long time they have been dreaming about the price going under $5k regretting that they didn't buy in October 2017, and now they've got more than they could have dream of.

No one can say where is the bottom and for how long Bitcoin will stay there, so one should not invest their money in BTC if they need the money for living expenses. But if you have spare money intended for investing and you are not investing in Bitcoin these days, don't curse the fates later, because you were given an opportunity.

Personally I believe that Bitcoin can't drop below the $3,000 per coin mark. If it does, then it makes no sense to mine the coins. Hopefully the prices will recover before the end of this year.

Everyone says that in 2019 many institutional investors will enter the cryptocurrency market. Therefore, many people understand the growth prospects of the market and want to buy cryptocurrencies at a low price. When bitcoin reaches 3000 USD - it will be possible to conclude that it is. Otherwise the course will go even lower.

Yes, it is scary and its normal to feel like that because all the major supports of 5500$ 5000$ 4400$ were broken just like that as if no one is interested in bitcoin anymore and that is what makes me wonder what on earth happened all of a sudden. I truly believe that this is being done by big players to get their position before a run up as many missed the 2017 train.

Institutional investors were participating even in 2017. IMO, what changed the atmosphere was the failure of the ICOs. A lot many of them failed and this soured the mood in general.

I'm not sure that 2019 many institutional investors will enter the cryptocurrency market, what is the reason? Isn't this the right time when bitcoin is experiencing a bear market. Why do you have to wait a month or a few months? Until now, I have not found a reasonable comment or analysis about bitcoin. Hashrate war also doesn't have much influence on bitcoin technology, even bitcoin wallet activities tend to increase. https://www.blockchain.com/charts

Just as a reminder, the price of Bitcoin was $1000 in January 2017. We've been too used to see Bitcoin in the $15,000-200,000 range during several months in 2017
After the crash started earlier in 2017, we stayed all this time hoping to see Bitcoin set a new record. We are full of uncertainties at the moment and a small positive sign would be good for everyone.

The market is very bad, probably the worst I've ever seen. Many bad rumors affect the market a lot. Bitcoin and many other Altcoin do not see the blue in the last two weeks so many investors like me have to worry. Many people like me are still waiting for the end of the year hoping it will come back vigorously.

Bitcoin just made a Black Friday, so you can get it at 50% off  :D

Omg, man, that's hilarious! :D

The only difference is that people usually buy useless sh*t during Black Fridays, while buying BTC at today's price is a golden opportunity. But, yeah, I know it's impossible to explain that to people who are skeptical. I know that because I was in their place once. The fool I was, I didn't even bother to research, I just ignored the message.

A good chance to buy cryptography at an attractive price. It's very symbolic that it coincided with the holiday of a black Friday. We laughed very much at this, because such prices are simply impossible to miss.

maybe the correct term is fake pump at the end of 2017 last year, we already know that the price of BTC is now never more than 7k USD in recent months, and currently the price is at 4k USD

and now is the time to panic

The moment is indeed very rare and we must be able to use it, so there is nothing wrong if we try to join in trading because the current market conditions are very suitable for buying and selling bitcoin.

Nice jokes mate, it seems that bitcoin is currently rising again. users who take advantage of the moment when prices fall to $3700 are lucky people. because they can enjoy current benefits. people who panicked yesterday will regret why not buy at a very cheap price (black Friday discount) lol. instead they make sell

Bitcoin may feel the impact of other global market downturns!
Both oil prices and the stock market are continuing to fall!
The good news is that the Fed has suspended interest rate hikes. This may be a turning point!

i think fund switched from commodity market to cryptocurrency market didnt happen at this moment.financial institution need crypto exchages like BAKKT to trade their fund.and unfortunately they postponed their futures trade.

Should become a long-term cryptocurrency investor. The short-term ups and downs of the cryptocurrency market are normal. Historically, cryptocurrency fires have been seen four times, so you don't have to worry about the future of cryptocurrencies.

I remember even during the worst of bear market times we were talking about how 5.8 thousand dollar was the lowest bitcoin has seen this year which means even though it dropped a lot from 20 thousand dollars it is still much better then any other year. Right now we have managed to hit 3.5 thousand dollars somehow.

All of that "the best year ever even with a bear market" deals are gone now because 3.5 thousand doesn't look all that promising at all. I remember even just couple weeks ago we were all optimist about bitcoin because we believed after the bear market the stagnant market was a prep time for the upcoming bull run. It didn't come, we are stuck here at a place where we can't sell because it would mean a lot of lost money and we can't buy because we are afraid it will go down even further.

Fire is totally out and handled good!
We can see now a green field in the market.
I think this is what we call BULL RUN!
December will be healthy month for the market and i hope it will leap the price well!

Right bro! There is nothing that is going on in this market that is not worthy of being happy about. We are in a market of great opportunities and this is more like the market going back in time to last year to give those who missed early last year chances to be buying into the market now.

I know a lot of people may be a little bit skeptical without knowing what the future holds. Apparently, no one does, but the thing is that if you at least understand there is a possibility of a long term potential when it comes to usage and adoption, there is no way you won't be willing to at least take the chance. Over time, people will envy you for being a part of the market now.

I think by the end of this year, the bitcoin price was $2000+ and still keep dropping in next year. I was concern about the drop every time when i visit the market, and i only see is reds.

We are really in the dark ages of bitcoin. I have been around about 5-6 years now I have never seen this much doom talk going on. Even after Mt.gox people did not got scared like this about the price, nobody was given a damn about the price. The point of bitcoin was the utility of it and how it made everything easier globally and so forth.

People were scared of the bitcoins they no longer had, not the money they lost, people were not like "Oh I lost this much dollars in mt.gox", no not at all they were like "I lost this much bitcoin in mt.gox" instead which put the emphasis on bitcoin instead of fiat. Nowadays people are so worried about price of bitcoin instead of bitcoin that we can't ever go up to a level that would make people happy. Bitcoin could be a million dollars and people would ask "when do you think it will be 2 million".

I think the saddest part is that we are no longer shocked by the movements. I was expecting the below 4 thousand levels to be temporary and whenever it reached anything under 4 thousand the price would skyrocket back to a normal level, not like 10 thousand levels but about 5 thousand at least because under 4 thousand really makes it worthless to mine however if it stays like this for a long time people will stop mining and the difficulty will drop which brings another problem, easier to stay at these price levels compared to going back up.

Hence I think we should not be really accepting these prices, we should make the prices go higher enough to make it worthwhile to mine coins so we can actually stay around those levels, if we accept these prices it won't be going up anytime soon, either we react quickly or we stay here for a long time.

The situation in the cryptocurrency market in fact does not please me, and no one would have thought that bitcoin could fall below 4,000 dollars. Personally, I can not imagine how events will develop further, but I would not want the price of Bitcoin to fall below $ 3,500.

I don't think so, Bitcoin has been criticized for so many times same what you are just said it now. But still Bitcoin stand and became the top and king of all crypto currencies in this industry. From 200$ 2014 and now the price of bitcoin was thousand of dollars. If I know, you're just waiting it to dump it more then you will take the chance to buy bitcoin if that happens. :P

Do not ever tell that die bitcoin will gonna die. As you can see the price of bitcoin surpass the $4000 and I think it has little improvement. Can you tell me what is fun? There is no fun here because many people already lose huge amount of money because of the falling price. Lastly, I am sure that bitcoin will survive in many years.

It should get better after the price 3500$, 4300$ it's a new pice but still I think it can stand for this price I think another week or two then we can expect a new grow in crypto market

Lol that is their goal. of course bitcoin will not die in the near term. people just want to make market conditions worse by spreading
fud. so they can buy and dump at cheap prices. this is not the end of bitcoin and crypto. look now price become green and improved prices

You almost panic there. What else would it be to those who saw it went down to $5k and have weaker hands?
They already did what you could have done now. I say it is like a landslide of small investors.
One goes down and the other did making a large avalanche that dumps the bitcoin price.
We cannot just blame it to the whales. Those who followed them also contributed a big part to all of this.

The movement of the price of bitcoin in the past few days has been very volatile. I saw in coinmarketcap the price increase reached 10% and soon it declined again to 7% and there was no news that could really change prices so quickly. And might predict the OP will occur, the price decrease will touch $ 3000 and then it will rise again.

Bitcoin is far from dying and and the present low price of the coin even provide opportunity to many investors whose been waiting for cheaper bitcoin. The price of the topcoin might go down further this december but it doesn't mean  its dying. This price correction or accumulation is natural part of cryptocurrency volatility and price cycle. After the price hit the bottom, there's no other way to go but up.

Is this caused by large investors who have lost hope in bitcoin? If yes, why are they dumping bitcoins that have great potential in the future? Has Bitcoin been replaced by another coin? this makes me a little frustrated. What can we do if the market continues to fall, while we have lost a lot of money

Even holders can still have a chance to be buying into the market now to be able to take advantage of the low prices as well and for those who bought at the peak and still holding, that would practically be like one of the best things to be doing right now, considering the fact that the market is giving an opportunity again, to at least be taking good chance on the future.

Opportunities like this tend to come only in few years, and it takes being smart to be able to take advantage of it. Those who are familiar with the way things are with market will always know better in most cases.

It is difficult to behold but checking the history of the market, it has always been the trend; bullrun follows by bear run. The dump has a disheartening margin within 50-80% dump. Sometimes it last more than 2 years. If one had listen to older enthusiasts we could have learned and make better decision during the bullrun. Any investor who partook now and fall victim again will look like a fool.

I do not believe market price prediction at all because it can relatively lost a lot especially if one will believe on it. There is no one can really predict the market of cryptocurrency. If you are an investor now it might be good to cool down first on investing crypto for the market is not so good. Just wait there is a good market price increase that we can almost state that market has already recover.

As I think bitcoin will soon be on its feet, so to speak, it will rise in price, and in my opinion the price for bitcoin will not be below 6000$.I’ll hope for the best.

It seems to me that the next stop will be in the region of $ 3,000. True to begin with, I am waiting for growth in the region of 4500-5000 dollars, and then fall again. Maybe, I certainly can be wrong, but it seems to me that until mid-2019 the situation will be consistently bad and there will be no Bitcoin growth. The market will be in the flat in the range of 2500-4500 dollars for Bitcoin. Many investors will go out and sell their cryptocurrency. In addition, I expect news attacks on cryptocurrency and recommendations to sell cryptocurrency from many
false cryptocurrency experts. But towards the middle of 2019, I am waiting for the growth of cryptocurrency.

Still, in a better situation, many analysts predicted this since the last high it reached on 2017 end. $6000 was quite a good support for a while, now it is hovering around $3500, I hope it stays and from here practical bull run takes place. But, still, I won't be surprised to see it go down to around $2500.
Now, all depends on manipulators, common people/investor.

I see that this Black Bitcoin Friday lasted too long. Nobody was happy to get such a great discount. However, I guess, the better time will come, and this winter will be the period of the cryptocurrencies growth.

the crashed arent only caused by large investors because it is also caused by the manipulation of whales  . bitcoin didnt also replaced by another coin because because we can see that the it is still the leading crypto even though it drop a major percentage from the past months  .  



theres only one best thing that we can do when the market continues to fall and that is to keep hodling however we can also sell some of our assets if we trully  need a cash  .  

overall , the bearish trend that we are experiencing right now is about to end because the value is now stabilizing and is showing signs of life .

I think if the values of bitcoin continues and drop to around $2500 USD per bitcoin, I believe a lot of miners might decide to shut down their mining machines as it would be very difficult for them to continue operating their bitcoin mining business, so I guess the values of bitcoin might see a strong support level at around $3500 USD per bitcoin. And hopefully once Bakkt starts their operation in January 2019, there might be a chance for the return of the bull market as some new investors might decide to inject fresh funds into crypto-currencies.

when viewed from the chart, indeed bitcoin managed to break its defenses downward, so the downward trend continued. I think many are waiting for the signal to get a reversal trend

yeah, now the market is still red and I hope it will soon be green because I am sure that the crypto price will definitely change again and will recover soon, so I will still be waiting for that to happen

It has been quite disastrous for the past two weeks in the crypto market. But the prices started recovering this weekend though. Let's see if it continues recovery into the new week.

It's not just Bitcoin is falling but also all altcoins in the market. So I guess it's only fair just like an economic crisis but I a digital aspects. So the only solution to this crisis is patient and enthusiasm to what we are investing.

The drop in crypto market is not a situation for the crypto space alone, the stock market and other investment platforms are facing the same challenges, perhaps it might be a global economic crisis arising from the frequent withdraw for the Christmas festival.
Whatever be the reason for the decline, the market is now in green again and it is good sign of market recovery. Let's keep fingers crossed, the bull market may happen sooner than we anticipate.

Bitcoin prices have risen above $4,100, hardly able to drop to $4,000 again?

Read the forecast of Jack Bogl.
Half of his predictions come true )))

Adjusting our expectations about the market really puts things into perspective. I mean us expecting bitcoin and any other crypto currency to tank makes us thankful ones it doesn't. But with the way the market is, I don't think it is too far off to see bitcoin in the 2,000 USD price range. Then again, once that happens everyone will be on a buying spree.

They are all burning! Top coins in CMC are moving down until now. They are all -30% and I think these coins will not rise up until the end 2018. All of my investment turns into a cheap coin. In fact, I am preparing myself so that I will not be surprised when I see my coins turning into shitcoins.

Everyone is making the same old joke on every single black friday. Just as the price falls a bit for friday or just goes down a bit during christmas and everyone is like "hey its black friday deal for bitcoin" or "hey its christmas gift from bitcoin" and all those same similar jokes every single year.

Get used to this because there is a huge correlation between the two. Price falls because there is black friday, the price can't stand those days because people sell their coins to get great deals from black friday places and price will always fall.

Since that always happens people will always make the same old joke for the next 100 years (or whenever bitcoin or black friday ends) which is why there is a big correlation between the two. I think we should stop focusin on jokes but start focusing on causes and how to prevent it. My vote is to have huge black friday deals that could be attained with bitcoin in order to rise the buyer numbers as well.

So this could possibly the end of bitcoin. People are already exhausted investing in this coin and this is the problem now because.many are.still stuck on their investment due to holding their bitcoin and wishes to get the exact amount they invested on bitcoin. One this is for sure that only who manages bitcoin, exchanges are earninh huge in this system and not the real investors because they are the milking cow of this system.

Actually it depends when you bought bitcoin , if you bought 10k+ range then ofcourse it will freak you out . Im following bitcoin since it was 300+$ range . There was alot of dumps and people were shouting that bitcoin is dead and its going down . And now i see it happening again , people freaking out and asked for advice what to do :) If you invested money you can afford to lose then there is nothing you can do , just wait :) Ofcourse people can trade and earn , but i would better not risk it :)

Trading sites can go bust. Always keep some in a cold wallet.

Yesterday and the day before, it was at the price rate of $4222 and a bit above that, but this morning it is down to $4002. That’s what volatility can cause, it will be at a particular rate now but within an hour or so it will be way below that or even above, you can never tell what happens next. We are already in December and I expect things to start changing, not in this way but to start going up.

You might be right, I have seen someone say the same thing that there is not going to be any bull run this year and early next year. But there will be a Bull maybe at the end of next year and it’s going to be a huge one. I don’t know what to do yet but since I don’t need the money I have invested in Bitcoin then there is no need to withdrawing it, would be best for me to leave it there and wait for when the price will grow again.

calm down even though the market in a bear we can take the opportunity to trade, I have done trading when the market bear and it is very profitable

The BTC price is clearly still in a downward trend!
The price of $3,000 may be the bottom of the BTC!
China and the United States have suspended trade wars, and perhaps the downward trend of cryptocurrency may be eased!

so far according to coinmarketcap bitcoin now was below 4k$ it was 3993$ https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin/

But I still remain on my belief into bitcoin which I really knew that it will bounce again at the right time for sure.

Actually many people have bought bitcoins and altcoins at higher prices than the current price of bitcoins. That's why many people who are unable to HOLD are in a panic. Many people needs money to spent and they can't hold for long.

they affraid if price continue goes down and make their assets value decrease alot.big mistake that usually did by many people was , while seeing market goes down they always said it as lowest price.meanwhile it still continue.

I Agree, I thought that we will never go below $6,000 but as we all know the price right now is continuously going down. Many people already gave up and sell their Bitcoin because they need the money now and they can not stand the pressure of seeing their investment vanish little by little day by day. Nobody knows when will it recover but I do not think it will happen soon.

I think untill end this year, bitcoin price will stay around $4000. 2018 is not good year for bitcoin and cryptomarket. I hope 2019 will be good year for cryptocurrency price. Its hard to predict bitcoin price at this moment, but i am believe many good news will come like bitcoin will traded in nasdaq.

They allowed the situations wins against them, they bought at the higher price then sell it to the whales who manipulate the value in its most cheapest coming from the great run last year, we might continue to see the value from this level until new good news happened and more new investors to play
inside the market and bring more pumped.

Yes ,that's what happens now but don't panic. Everything is impossible in the crypto world ,so be patient,pray that the storm will pass quickly . ;D

The market are all freaking us out. No one wants to become poor after being rich for a long time. But I believe sooner or later the market will soon recover and become more stable at an acceptable price. This will not be the end for all cryptocurrencies. We just need to have more patience than before. I believe the drop will keep going, so the recovery would also last long.

And why do you think the market will recover? Why should it? You're just throwing a prediction with nothing to argue it with. The market won't come back on its own, so overnight, nothing happened or anything else.
How deep we are going into the toilets, harder the market will be able to recover. I even start to think it will never happen to see BTC $20$ or let's say $15k.

I disagree with you, because in my opinion bitcoin is correcting prices so that they don't happen like last year, where prices reached almost USD 20,000. It's good for bitcoin owners, because it's selling for a big value. But it is not healthy, because no one buys because the price is too expensive. While trading must be buyers and sellers. So  there are those who think ideally the price of bitcoin is in the range of USD 3,000. After the number is reached, bitcoin will rise again but not too high, and will fluctuate in that range. That's my opinion.

This downfall is a best time to buy with the unexpected price of bitcoin. We just need enough patience to hold our coins and not be affected with this downfall as this will bounce back.

patience is indeed needed when things like this, do not be frustrated with the situation, and confidence will bring us to glory. by buying bitcoin now or at least holding it will make a big contribution

Well those who have already bought bitcoins at a higher price, it is really a nightmare situation for them to see bitcoin at such low prices. However those who are yet to enter in this market, they should consider themselves lucky to be able to get bitcoin below 4000$.

do not be scared. It's just a whale's adjustment. The history of the internet has been repeated and it will take us more than 5-7 years for the market to recover. It's a long time and you will see more and worse situations. Be prepared psychologically

It is just normal to see bitcoin below 4000 USD.
Let many people who dont trust the process sell their tokens.
It is a short time to rise again in normal price i am seeing bitcoin to be more than 5K USD before the year ends.

Yeah, stock markets, Forex and other asset markets are red. I believe that economic problems also has a great effect on the cryptocurrency market.

But just like any other markets, I expect it to recover within few months. This won't last forever, and it is very unusual that this is a result of some FUDs, this dump is completely huge.


I hope the storm will calm down fast and that the market will recover fast. I will not sell until the market recovers, I will have so much losses.

We pray bitcoin should be more than $5000 before end of this year and that should happen very soon as the year is about to come to an end.  Cryptocurrencies market is really in bad condition now and I also have never thought of seeing bitcoin below $5000. The current price is a test on our faith and believe in blockchain technology.  I will keep holding and see what the future hold for me.

There is fire in the market but we are running nowhere. We shall all weather the storm until the market recovers again and hope Bitcoin rise above $5k before the end of the year.

I hope bitcoin price could reach 5k before year ends since these days price has not been showing a progressive move in the market. There should be a good news that crypto price should increase. A lot of users already disappointed with the market but I am still holding on about btc.

the market continues to tilt in the price range of $ 4000 and this has been valid for several weeks, the prediction of the end of the year will not be more than $ 5000 per BTC and will increase in the following year, all can occur if all conditions are stable without serious FUD and other fundamental supports fast crypto

Intuition tells me that in the next two weeks we can expect another small dive down, it seems to me that the area around which may be the lowest point will be about $ 2800. Personally, I will be ready to start buying bitcoin for all my last money if the price going below $ 3000.

Keep calon, this is only temporary. later the cryptocurrency market will also recover. maybe the price can go down again. so we must remain calm, we must take advantage of this situation to buy bitcoin at a low price.

right, after breaking support yesterday, it could be a bad possibility, namely the negative trend continues. but indeed calm and psychological must be maintained to face market

bitcoin price right now can still going bad because this term that have many bad event, and this right now are in the end of the year, that would make many investor are going out from this to getting some money for holiday, it still began

the price of bitcoin continues to decline every day, until what level and when there will be an increase in the price of bitcoin we also don't know. Hopefully it will return bullish after the new year.

Most likely, by the end of this year we can see the bitcoin price below $ 3,000 than $ 5,000. We see that there are no signs of growth in the cryptocurrency market. On the contrary, Bitcoin and the entire cryptocurrency are now slowly falling in their price. True, there is still little hope for a change in trends in the market. However, common sense suggests that there will be no significant increase in the price of cryptocurrency by the end of the year. This month is likely to be rich in dramatic events.

    The crypto market still very Volatile, it is crazy, unpredictable, what we had seen this recent market activity is very unexpected from Bitcoin. it was down to a very low price as posted on the market.  yet, it remains on the market. its fighting back to a very existence and status on tje market.  i also believe that it will bounch back to a more stable market status soon...

Hoping that it could bounce back. But, what if it will not go bouncing and instead it will just continue to fall down? I know that I am a fan also of cryptocurrency but the team should need some promotions and adaptations to every country that the system should be to create more demand for cryptocurrency and better and active trading system.

Buying Bitcoin at these prices is the same as catching a falling knife. Most people would agree there is a genuine chance the price will bounce back fairly quickly, but sustianing such a run is something else entirely. It is not something that can be done under these current circumstances.

Traders will rather wait to buy Bitcoin and risk missing out on some profits than buying in now and seeing prices slide even further in the coming weeks.

Personally, I have no idea how low the price will go, although I do expect it to test $3,000 at some point. I wouldn't mind being proven wrong on that front, but for now, all signs point toward more bearish pressure. When that is the case, most level-headed traders will not buy at current prices and simply wait for a lower entry point to materialize.

Your idea is quite strange, who is the team that will do the promotion for bitcoin ? btw we have reached the end of the year, and maybe there won't be too much price difference until the end of the year. there is no special thing will happen in a short time, so it seems there will be no pump price until the end of the year

It looks as if 4 thousand is the bottom, whenever it goes down further to 3800 or so levels it goes back up, I think it even looks like a good trading point and some of my friends did it this time around, they purchased bitcoin from 3800 and sold at 4180 or so. I think the price is having a good resistance to dropping below 4 thousand dollars and not going any further down anymore.

Not like it can't, we know bitcoin can drop significantly when something huge happens but for now it looks stable at around 3.8 and 4.2 levels. The question in my mind is that when the "shorting" started a lot of whales took advantage of that, will it be the same when Nasdaq starts their ETF as well ? Will rich people bet on bitcoin dropping ? If that happens than we can see even further drop than this one.

maybe the price of bitcoin can go down even more, I predict if the price of bitcoin will reach $ 2000 by the end of the year. but we don't need to panic, surely the price will also recover. in my opinion it maybe also decrease the price of bitcoin because someone can manipulate the price. For to buy bitcoin at a low price from people who sell in panic.

Market this year was really aggravating and many people are really in panic mode that's why prices are keep going down despite all the community efforts to keep bitcoin's prices at bay. If bitcoin will hit below such price then this could create more dilemma that could create another meltdown market crash.

 Yes, fire on crypto currecy market..we can seen a lot of Speculation on what to be expected on Bitcoin.. yet the down stream trend was not predicted as it was put on speculation. Will never know really how Bitcoin closed the 2018 market given the 3weeks period left. We can seen the active crypto market again..yet more on sell off... i looking forward to a more positive year end market trading for crypto. as it is always Correction follows after the market glitz..good luck lets monitor what will happen next...

People are in panic mode because they relied on a false concept and anticipated wrongly. We all agree that the crypto market does not follow a fixed pattern, hence why the November/December bull market anticipation? Lot of investors had the thoughts of seeing a bull market during this month of the year in order to make some profit perhaps for the holidays and once the market showed no sign of such, these investors decided to withdraw and save some money for the holidays.
Let's remember, this is crypto and it is driven by us (users) and not any central authoritative body, hence our attitude towards the market is what determines its value and prices. Let's stay positive and keep calm, there is no point in panic selling. The market will definitely rise again.

Don't worry, this is not the only cryptocurrency market. The same problem arises in the global financial markets. If this problem is not suppressed, the war in some areas may be inevitable. This is a conspiracy of politicians. When the national economy does not When the stability of the national system is in crisis, they will use war to unify. I am worried about war.

Panic pushes the market because there is no end to the amount of speculation going on and some people are always making sure to cash out in the loss because they never trusted the asset in the first place. LOL

Truth is many people joined in the bandwagon when price was sky high at the ATH and then were bound to become suckers because of this mistake. Manipulation drove people to buy without analyzing price charts. This happens when you follow someone else's advice to invest into something without knowing about it.

Unfortunately it drop already to 3.4K USD as of this moment recorded on coinmarketcap.com today dated December 07, 2018. I guess that this is cryptocurrency and everything is possible. We could not know also that bitcoin will going to bounce up even up to 20K USD again.

Now the price of bitcoin is below USD 4,000 and creates a dilemma between holding or selling bitcoin. Incorrect analysis can lead to loss and regret, because prices can suddenly rise or even decline. Panic in the crypto market can further reduce the price of bitcoin.

Do not worry much about it as market will rise eventually and this seems to be the near about the bottom price and we should soon be starting the bull run . Hopefully it happens this year itself so that people can have a great New Year to start with. Stay invested in this market.

we have to see that bearish trend still has power in market now.they controll the market now and we hope that angel investors to could help cryptocurrency market recovered.and maybe it could happen if BAKKT already launched.

personally i hope cryptocurrency community will help its price by their own self.depend on other investors especially form institutional investors make this market easy to manipulated.

now is the right time to buy large amounts of bitcoin at low prices, of course this will make you get the maximum profit because indirectly when you buy in large amounts of food it will trigger the price to move up this price increase will make a lot people also buy because they also want to make a profit, so take advantage of the best opportunities to get maximum profits

A lot of people to hear the worst of bitcoin so that they can say I told you so. The market will rise again and I will be the one telling them I told you so instead. Bitcoin will pick up no doubt about that

Bitcoin is a super coin .I have a great experience on Forex and i noticed a lots of time that market are falling hugely on down .So that i think its a common habit of market to move ups and downs .But now we are thinking a lot for the recent situation i think all of the fake news are acting much on their .I think there is no possibility to up the market above 4000$ in this year end .Hopefully we will find the market on bull momentum in the next year .I am waiting for the right time so being patience and suggest it too.

I think the downturn in bitcoin will pass, and will return with a better value. Slowly the bitcoin market will have more value and increase.
Investors will return and the quality of bitcoin will get stronger.

I think it will never go down for $ 3000. Our market is recovering and I think this is the bottom of the market. It only ranges from $ 3000 - $ 4000. So this is the time to trade.

I disagree with this, we must not compromise bitcoin in any way or form the moment we do that bitcoin is over, we must let people to adopt bitcoin at their own speed, people like us are very enthusiastic about the technology and that is why we are here even if bitcoin still has some issues to solve but most people are not like us and will want to use bitcoin once those issues are solved.

No this is a very pessimistic scenario for those who have lost values. They are still here and wait for the recovery. If we talk about the habitants of the crypto market, they are good at handling it but the visitors have to leave.

I do not know the exact reason the market continues to decline throughout 2018 and this is already in the third week of December 2018, but in recent days prices have improved even though they have not been significant. prices will rise until Christmas this year but will not exceed $ 5000 per BTC this year. crypto is a potential long-term investment and there is nothing to fear

For me $3,000 will be the closest next bus stop for Bitcoin downwards and it is also possible to go down but I don't think if it will reach $2,000 at the end of 2018 but we have to expect as it is now in holiday season wherein almost everyone wants to relax and get some Bitcoins in exchange of fiat money for the family but there is also a chance that price will bounce back up to $5,000-$10,000 who knows if it really happen before the year ends. Good for those who has patience as they can harvest the sweetest fruit they planted.

right, that is what I am cautious about, even though at the moment the price is rising, but it is still a downward trend, we must be careful, maybe a slight increase now is only a correction

How can the issues be solved? we know that the state and the government really hate bitcoin and even they frighten their citizens by reason of an illegal act. So many don't believe in bitcoin anymore. these issues must be resolved immediately.

Well this is now very normal that price increases and decreased. In last few years price of bitcoin was not very high but last 2017 has left very huge target now in 2018 as it is and so I think more people will buy coins and holding it will give them good income in 2019. I think 2018 will end up giving us surprise of high price bitcoin.

on this day we can see bitcoin above the price of $ 4000, and this gives a positive sentiment for other coins is green. Hopefully this will continue to grow the cryptocurrency market tears

it looks like bitcoin has reached the price of $ 4k a few days ago, and maybe the next target is the price of bitcoin is $ 5k, step by step the price of bitcoin can recover if there is always good news.

I hope that bitcoin can break up to 5k, don't let the bitcoin fall again I have always monitored the market every day to make sure it does not go down more than 3500

Why you always expect the good condition? Price can be up or down any time, any condition. Before 2017, the market condition was not so good. After 2018, it will be a great year for crypto currency. We should wait some time for this.

Eh, everything is relative in the world of the crytpo ... now that the price is finally coming back on the $ 4,000 it seems a great achievement and we are all breathing a sigh of relief.
We can only hope that the bull trend will continue.

We are so grateful for now that bitcoin price won't fall below $3k, isn't that worst as it happen  in previous years.  Not necessarily we worried for its fall cause isn't the way that crypto due. A big challenge for us came again and it's quite amazing that we've been survive for almost a year of dips, this bearish trend will end up soon for sure.

Yes, everything has returned to a very good price increase during the week. Prices remain strong, so the fires on the market are over, and we all hope prices will continue to increase.

Bitcoin is strong and has more than $ 4,000, so keep thinking positively if you have more value. We will continue to get fresh air for the development of bitcoin on the market, investor confidence is starting to grow so this makes bitcoin stronger.

Recent increases give the feeling that everything is getting better, but unfortunately it can only be temporary. I have a strange feeling that someone gives us a gift for Christmas, and he will take it from us right after them. Hopefully not..

The market has started to be friendly so it starts to green, this is very good to maintain.
This increase gives a lot of pleasant thoughts and this is considered a Christmas gift.

Yep, just in the last 24 hours bitcoin went to $4200 and continue as I put this message. It means that something is brewing up on the market and could be a start of the bull run we all have been waiting for. So we need to be optimistic that hope that we can get out of this bear market once and for all.

Before last week I was also very worried about the market which for almost 8 months was bearish, and for many reasons and assumptions the experts increasingly made me restless and moreover the issue of trump economic war and hash war in BCH, but a few days the market started green.

The market fire has been extinguished so positive expectations for the future will be better. In the not too distant future, the value of bitcoin has increased and this will be an encouragement to continue in the green position.

good news, right now bitcoin has touched the price of $ 4000 and continues to grow.
as well as ETH, I think this growth is the beginning of the market recovery.

It dropped below $4k in just one day, really bad but the good news is that it's starting to recover now.
I'm actually looking at the overall marketcap of the entire market, I would really love to end this year with just maybe $200 billion marketcap, I'm sure that's still possible even we have less than a week only before the end of the year.

ETH is what I really like to rise because it will definitely affect the value of my ETH tokens, ETH has not perform well this year with worst drop but this is crypto, people may think ETH will not recover but in our eyes, it's just a normal scenario as it happened in the past many times.

Bitcoin price has been balancing between 3,500 and 4,200 for a very long time. Even the best crypto specialists cannot tell us if BTC can go up or if it falls again. all we can do right now is to wait and hold this crypto.

Bitcoin is going to see a rise, it is just a matter of time. But things have changed, people are targetting short-term and selling as soon as it is growing a bit. So, it might take time to see some good value, but I like it as its growing slowly because the FUDs are going to reduce along with it, not completely but too some extent for sure. And I would also say hold it and if somebody is in a loss just bear patience and hold. Now, depending on your requirements the final decision is based on individuals.

No one can know the Crypto market will go to this level but in Crypto market anything what's happened which means expect the unexpected things will always happen in Crypto market so we can expect anything in this field.

in fact we really hope big here. with blushing the market means the opportunity to buy at a low price. aren't many principled selling high, buying low? besides that we will be taught for psychological training and market analysis in order to become a trader whose profits are consistent, and far from being greedy

Market became better few days ago and give BTC value of more than 4,000 USD.
But now we are seeing it again below 4k. but it is a good thing still as it is not getting lower today.
I have read some news about the worst day after Christmas is 28th and what we are seeing now is much better.
As I read it it will go beyond 3,000 again and will reach the floor at 2300.

Until now market survived much worst things than this drop in price now. Hacked exchanges, hundred thousands of bitcoins stolen, connections with black markets, this list is long. This drop in price is not a big deal, because nothing wrong happened, its just fall in demand, and probably manipulations from big players. This year will be remembered as a year of  a big drop in price, but on other side many good things happened too, bitcoin is more popular, now many more people knows about it, interest in crypto is rising, only price is dropping, but for us who were here for years, this price is still good, actually its ideal for trading, with nice fluctuations.

This post is just super. It reflects everything that everyone needs to say when it comes to the current market situation. Fully agree with this opinion.

We should expect the bull run to commence after now there, we have experience a bit of stability for the past one month, I feel the correction is over, as the year 2018 wind off, there will be a steady growth on the price, 2019 is here, we are positive.

After reach the bottom at $3200, bitcoin price volatile between $3700 to $4000. Hopely many good news coming to market in 2019 and bitcoin price reach highest price again.

Voted for $3,000+ just now, lol.. funny because the year has already ended.
OP should time to update this thread or maybe create a new one with new poll, let's see what will be majorities prediction this year.

It's good though to see bitcoin trading sideways instead of another massive sell-off. We could see another relative months similar to the $6000-$6500 range prior to the hash war brought by Bitcoin Cash. That's the only thing we can do, hope and be positive that 2019 is a complete opposite of 2018 so that at the end all of us here are winners.

We have been leaning on news for the market and these seriously affects the price to the way that we can't expect. Stay tune for those news for Bakkt's and Bitcoin ETF proposal.

Bakkt's is likely to be set but for the ETF, I don't think you can lean and hope for that anymore. Who knows if something will change the mind of SEC and starts suggesting (shilling) bitcoin to the best way that they can.

Just an update would do and few edits.

as of today, bitcoin is bouncing back to4000 dollars which is a positive sign this year starting bitcoin is forming a green candle hopefully we see previous prices like 8000 dollars in the coming month

Hey Bitcoins has formed strong resistance around 3.5k levels, and if it continues to hodl it then I feel we may see 5k levels in a month or two. Also in comparison to last year there's relatively no fud yet, people are once again believing in the technology and adapting it. Lastly I also believe market sentiments are high as we have some big events lined up in quarter one of 2019, hence we should see some more upward movements in prices soon.

Well, we don't know for sure what will happen though all we know is that the price is quite stable considering that it has a lot of quick changes or movement in the past. I never seen Bitcoin being that stable and I never thought that it will happen sooner that I expected. If this continues, I can say that Bitcoin will be a safer place to invest this year and in the upcoming more years.

the chart is no longer valid because the current cryptocurrency price has begun to show price increases and it seems that in 2019 the price of bitcoin and several other cryptocurrency will experience price increases because it is evident from the condition that some coins have greened again and the graph has begun to show price increases.

it has not been properly tested and bitcoin is still below the ideal price, the gradual increase is still false and this is not a good line for the increase. Some altcoins do look to be increasing but they only focus on hardfork, and the stigma that emerges is only temporary hype.

I still see the market still in the same condition and will turn red again.

if I look at the condition of the graph like this again, I will buy the coins in the top rank for me to save because it looks like this is the lowest price that occurred in 2019, because I'm sure this year the prices of all cryptocurrency will bounce and recover prices .

We all know the value of the Bitcoin is not so powerful that's why people are saying Bitcoin will not be work anymore and the value also decreasing again and again when the days are going because the investment people will reducing here when the investing people will increase then only the value will increase.

Even though the price of bitcoin is below $ 4000 USD there is nothing to worry, like all other financial markets there will be a fall and a hike and all the investors are awaiting for the bitcoin market to recover soon as the price of bitcoins will have a huge leap in the crypto market to the next highest price after the 2017 December highest range of $ 19000 USD.

all have been calculated by whales and you should not be too worried about it. Our market will have such a low time, but it still has a chance to recover. It gets whales that hold a lot of Bitcoin and they will soon pump the price of BTC to $ 7000. Be patient and hold on, don't give up.

I agree in this regard 4000$ is just a miner thing but we should hope for more than this in 2019. This is best time to have profit from your money as now it’s cheaper but very soon high pump will shock all investors for better. There are plenty of coins but I think bitcoin will be the king as always.

Quite surprised that we have a good pump today and touching $4K. I may have missed some news but I don't know what trigger these sudden increase again. Might not be a good idea to buy above $4K though, in a hindsight, this could be a good sign that indeed 2019 will be much healthier as compare to 2018 but I don't expect all-time-high this year. Will be happy if we see the price slowly peaking, inside of a massive pump again that will make bitcoin a bubble again.

The current price is $3800. but a few days ago the price touched $4k after the price fell before, actually the price has stabilized in this
position for several weeks, we need good news to make price it above $4k

Let's wait if bitcoin breakdown the support and will establish bullish run and no one would stop bitcoin on that. Always learn patience and hodl your bitcoin.

Price will move in any direction, with or without good news. In 2018 even with good news price had more red than green days, therefore you can see that something else is moving the price much more than news. I dont think that every time when price drop it means fire in the market, its misleading. On this kind of headlines and news you can see how manipulation works, how someone is triggering panic sell off, or some fever for buying, don`t trust in everything you read, look market and numbers, they dont lie.

I think we should know that in the past year there were many bad news than good news, thats why many people panic. at the beginning of the year we certainly still remember news about the ban on using crypto in Asian countries and then made the prices of all crypto fall and corrections, then news about bch fork, and so on. News takes an important role in changing crypto prices.
You must know that there are many things that make up or down in demand, and one of them is news

It seems to me that 4 thousand is the price which can be the so-called border for Bitcoin. If BTC reached it again after the fall, it means that the cryptocurrency has got more chances to grow up than to fall down.

I think this is an economic downturn. Our market is also affected and we should sympathize for this. In the world, investors are suffering huge losses and we are not alone. We should find ways to make money in this bottom market. Strategic changes will be better than waiting.

Many predictions say it will recover more, but in reality.. it's still influenced by many things related to the economic life of many people and certain things that change price movements which sometimes are surprising and sometimes we are made like disappointed. well it's good to prepare a lot of things, or have another job in the real life to cover up a situation like this.

but seeing the potential of bitcoin later that will be used by many people, of course it will increase the price. although maybe not in the near future, so it requires patience for that

Unfortunately the crash was real and there is nothing we can do to change that fact, so what we must do is like always to try to adapt to the new circumstances and see if we can prosper under them and if that is impossible for us to do then we need to try to find a way to at least minimize our losses so we do not lose as much money as we lost with the previous crash.

I agree with you, we only need more patience. There is still a lot of potential saved by bitcoin for the future, maybe there will be many people who feel frustrated with the current price of bitcoin but with patience I'm sure everything will pay off well.

calm down buddy, that's just a necessary adjustment of the market. Bitcoin's value cannot exist at too high a price when it cannot serve the world better.
at the current price, it is its real price. Without pumping high prices, we should be happy about that because this is an opportunity for us to buy more BTC.

bitcoin price still in consolidation area.its moved in limited range and wait trigger to make its price jump and moon again.moreover bitcoin and blockchain technology still in early developtment.

dont too focus looking price if we invest in cryptocurrency market.this investment was about new technology in digital payment, and also cryptocurrency still in early stages.so it will need long time to be done.and it will need long time to see bitcoin and cryptocurrency price reached highest price ever.

until now in 2019, prices have not gone up yet. maybe it is true we have to see this as a technology, and not just price. that way we don't expect prices and that's where strong psychology will be maintained

Bitcoin price drop in 2018 because many market panic with many fake news in media. I think its our opportunity for buying bitcoin at cheap price. I am believe bitcoin price will recover again in 2019 because i think good news will come

Man, no one knows its real price. Some people are sure that one BTC will cost a million, while pessimists say Bitcoin will fall further and reach a bottom of a hundred dollars.

yes indeed no one can accurately predict how much the price will be experienced by bitcoin everything is still limited to forecasts and possibilities, but certainly the pattern of prices like this is now common after halving days occur and will recover some time later until the next halving day arrives etc

next halving still long time enough and maybe that has no influence to current bitcoin price movement.and now if we want to take good opportunity we could buy some btc with our free money although many expert said trend will continues goes down.

That maybe true that the falldown season is still on the market up to this time and the value of bitcoin is just getting lower , so we will just wait for the time when will be the market to rise up and recover.

Don't tell me that you are getting hopeless now about the potentiality of Bitcoin mate?
Have you forgotten that before bitcoin reach the value of more than 1000$ it takes year before it happens.
then during that time lot of critics don't believed that bitcoin will reach 1000$ but what happened on 2017 bitcoin was
jumped up to 20k$ and now not because bitcoin was down again below 4000$ it means, it will goes down to zero, of course not!

Nevertheless, we still have plenty of room and time left for going down before we let the bull run.

The prices of various crypto currencies such as Bitcoin tend to be unstable even though the global stock market goes up / down.
The performance of the cryptocurrency currency this time is very contrasting compared to the stock market which experienced a massive selloff.
Sometimes it's difficult to predict, for example, today Bitcoin has dropped more than 4%, tomorrow is up 11% sometimes during hourly trading it can go up / down. But in investing or trading you should be able to look carefully at the charts and analysis.

I think it is time for long term investments. It is really hard to predict. So you are to choose the coin you believe and hold it.

It sad to know that in this year we didn't expect about the pump and waiting for it's time, how can we profit now in crypto if even the king of the coins is dump also, people are manipulating the condition of crypto and it was frustrating because you've been fooled.5

hate that everything is so linked to btc right now and have been for the last year, it makes the market very boring to trade since everything follows bitcoin anyway.

I am late in the polling votes but I guess bitcoin now is really scaring out most or all of the investors. Just imagine you buy it high then suddenly it falls that hard but you have nothing to do except to hold it because if you will going to sell it definitely one will going to lose some of its money and that is not good. So, we do not have any choice but to wait for some time and hold.

no not really . not all are linked to btc because sometimes its just a co incedent were all cryptos are going in the same direction  . if you have a billion or a trillion amount of cash and you will be buying a different kind of crypto for example  , you can make that coin pump because it gets more demand compared to others  .

in reality , it maybe boring  for now but the best thing that we can do so far is to have a solid trust and patience because sooner or later the market can return to normal   .

many feel like you, especially for those who invest in early 2018, of course frustration is something natural. however, trust and patience will bring us to glory later, moreover many predictions that in the middle of this year prices will soon increase

The price went down because it had to, what we experimented at the end of 2017 was a bubble and it is impossible to deny it so to try to blame the media for what it happened is a huge mistake, we need to be clear about the reasons that caused the crash because if we are not then how we could possibly predict accurately when the next crash will happen.

I expect the drop and the pump so the market is not like the stable market anything will be happened and we are know that the market is suddenly drop and suddenly from but in today situation it will be likes reaching the $6,000 but it is not enough also and if it was like $15,000 only I will get my income.

It will be a good lesson for those who have invested everything in Bitcoin at a price of $ 20k. Now they will have to wait 3 years for Bitcoin to reach the price of $ 20k again to go to 0.

Simply that time, when Bitcoin was close to 20 K and even more, people used to say that BTC price would reach 50, 100, 200 thousand. It did not happen, but a lot of guys invested in Bitcoin to let the project live.

How do you know that the price of bitcoin will reach $0 in three years?

Have mystery ball which predicts the future. :P

That happen because most of people sell and sell and this caused on my opinion the drop and the price was so low, but i think this year will not happen and the price will grow more even if the grow will not be fast.

It seems that the forecast has come true, although the number of votes of the other forecasts is not much behind. I would like to see such a vote among the high ranks of the forum, it would be interesting to look at the result.
